Warnings and Cautionsfor When the Refueling
WARNING
Always heed the following when
refueling.
 Turn off the hybrid system.
 Keep sparks and
flames away from
the fuel-filler port.
 Wipe off any spilled fuel as soon as
possible.
Otherwise, it could cause a fire or
explosion because fuel or fuel vapor
could ignite easily.
Before refueling, make sure to
discharge the static electricity in your
body by touching a metal object on
the vehicle body.
An electrical discharge could ignite the
fuel or cause serious burns.
Always heed the following while
refueling.
 Always refuel the vehicle by yourself
and do not allow other people to
come close to the fuel-filler port.
 Do not go back inside the cabin or
touch a person or object charged
with static electricity.
 Do not use any electronic devices
such as a mobile phone or
Smartphone.
It could ignite the fuel or cause serious
burns caused by the charged static
electricity in your body again.
When opening/closing the fuel-filler
cap, always turn the fuel-filler cap by
holding the knob of the fuel-filler cap.
An electrical discharge could ignite the
fuel or cause serious burns.
Slowly open the fuel-filler cap, wait
for any hissing to stop, then open the
cap.
If the fuel-filler cap is opened quickly,
fuel may spray out and cause a fire.
Spraying fuel can also be harmful if it
gets in the eyes or on the skin.
Do not breath fuel vapors.
To x i c s u b s t a n c e s m i ght be included in
the fuel.
Insert the refueling nozzle into the
fuel-filler port securely.
If the nozzle is not inserted sufficiently,
it may delay the auto stop when the
tank is full, resulting in the fuel spilling
over and a possible fire.
Do not continue fueling after it is
stopped automatically.
If you continue fueling, fuel may spill
over causing a fire.
Do not pull out the refueling nozzle
immediately after the fuel is stopped
automatically.
The fuel remaining in the refueling
nozzle may spill out and cause a fire.
Securely close the fuel-filler cap.
If the fuel-filler cap is not closed
securely, fuel may leak while driving
the vehicle which could cause a fire.
CAUTION
 Follow the fueling instructions
indicated at the gas station when
refueling.

Always close the door and windows
when refueling. If a fire occurs with
the doors or windows open, the
flames may spread into cabin.
 Do not spill fuel on the vehicle while
refueling. It may cause discoloration,
stains, or paint damage.
 Do not use any non-genuine
fuel-filler cap. Use of a non-genuine
fuel-filler cap may lead to a
malfunction in the fuel system or
emission system.
(U.S.A. and Canada)
It may also cause the check engine
light in the instrument cluster to
illuminate.
 When using an automatic car wash
or a high water pressure car wash,
make sure that the fuel lid is closed
and lock the doors. Otherwise, the
fuel lid may open unexpectedly and
become damaged.

Inspecting the Tires
About Tires
For reasons of proper performance,
safety, and better energy efficiency,
always maintain recommended tire
inflation pressures and stay within the
recommended load limits and weight
distribution.
WARNING
Using Different Tire Types.
Driving your vehicle with different
types of tires is dangerous. It could
cause poor handling and poor braking;
leading to loss of control.
Except for the limited use of the
temporary spare tire, use only the
same type tires (radial, bias-belted,
bias-type) on all four wheels.
Using Wrong-Sized Tires.
Using any other tire size than what is
specified for the vehicle (page
10-71)is dangerous. It could seriously
affect ride, handling, ground
clearance, tire clearance, and
speedometer calibration. This could
cause you to have an accident. Use
only tires that are the correct size
specified for the vehicle.

Inspecting tire inflation pressure
WARNING
Always inflate the tires to the correct
pressure.
Overinflation or underinflation of tires
is dangerous. Adverse handling or
unexpected tire failure could result in a
serious accident.
Refer to Tires on page 10-71.
Use only a Mazda-genuine tire valve
cap.
Use of a non-genuine part is
dangerous as the correct tire air
pressure cannot be maintained if the
tire valve becomes damaged. If the
vehicle is driven under this condition,
the tire air pressure will decrease
which could result in a serious
accident. Do not use any part for the
tire valve cap that is not a
Mazda-genuine part.
Inspect all tire pressures monthly
(including the spare) when the tires are
cold. Maintain recommended
pressures for the best ride, handling ,
and minimum tire wear.
Refer to the specification charts (page
10-71).
NOTE
Cold inflation pressure
The cold inflation pressure is the
pressure measured under ambient
temperatures before the vehicle is
driven.
Maximum inflation pressure
The maximum inflation pressure is
the upper limit of the cold inflation
pressure designated by the tire
manufacturer.
Recommended inflation pressure
The recommended inflation pressure
is the cold inflation pressure
necessary for maintaining the
performance of your Mazda.
Underinflation or overinflation can
cause a harsh ride, reduced fuel
economy, a greater possibility of
damage from road hazards, uneven
and accelerated tire wear, and poor
sealing of the tire bead, which will
deform the wheel and cause
separation of tire from rim.
